Just to bring everything upto date, i was off all medication and sympton free for nearly 5 years, i had a few headaches in those years but lps showed pressure was ok. I thought i was cured of ih, the doctors had said it could just go away.
But in september 2008 i was getting headaches more often but just put it down to stress and having 2 young children.
I was admitted to hospital in october 08, i had kidney stones and pneumonia. my head was so painfull while in hospital but put it down to the lighting, but a week after i had been discharged from hospital my head was even worse, so i went to my gp and told him i needed refering back to neuro and fast.
So thats when my ih which i thought had gone, came back with a vengenace, so i was put back on meds till dec 09, then my eye doctor took me off them (the reason they did that is still unclear to me and my neuro). i was ok for a few months but then towards the end of 2010 my headaches were starting to come back, i know it was my pressure rising even tho my neuro thought it was stress, but i had an lp in jan this year and my pressure was up again, so back on medication.
that brings my story upto present day,
